Abstract
In this research work we describe the creation of the concept of a distributed journey planning system that links as many journey planning services as are available in public transportation operators and willing to participate in one or more networks of journey planners across Europe. This is integrated on European project MASAI and it is part of a development of mobile solutions that allows journey plans in Europe based on public transportation availability, with the possibility of buying tickets in a mobile device with a multi-operator scenario. A semantic context was created in order to identify which Application-Programming Interfaces (APIs) from different public transport operators to use and set start\end trip points.
